Chapter 106: Men and Women
As the night darkens, people fall asleep.
In Wuhan, there are two figures, clinging to each other, walking out of an apartment.
It's a man and a woman.
He, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, can clearly be seen under the dim street lamp, and there is a shocking scar on his face.
She is beautiful and refined, in the night breeze, her long hair is fluttering, although she limps when she walks, she still can't hide it, and she invisibly reveals the ethereal and dusty.
He helped her into a gray van.
After a while, a soft sound sounded, and two beams of light pierced the sky, and in front of him, there was a white color.
The car moved, and the van drove slowly, heading northwest.
It was late at night, and the streets were empty and lonely.
In the car, there were no words.
Until the van gradually walked out of Wuhan, Chen Xi opened the window.
The wind was very light and cold, she took a deep breath, and a trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes.
They are getting farther and farther away from home.
"Brother Yuan, how long will we have to walk to Xi'an?" Chen Xi spoke, breaking the silence.
"More than 700 kilometers, if you drive faster, you should arrive at noon tomorrow!" Wu Zhiyuan said casually.
"Hmm!" Chen Xi nodded lightly.
The two fell silent again.
The van continued to drive forward, and gradually, the lights became less and less, and the outline of Wuchang City was gone.
"I've read a book......"
Chen Xi suddenly said, "There is a pair of men and women, both of them are writers, in a drinking party, the two met, it was love at first sight, they went to the bookstore together, went to the bar together, walked together, talked about everything, the relationship got better and better, deeper and deeper, and finally, the water got together, and the two got married......
"That's a good thing!" Wu Zhiyuan said with a smile.
"These two people can be regarded as a model couple, they have common ambitions and hobbies, and they are talented and beautiful!" Chen Xi continued, "In the first two years, the two of them were like glue, and they were happy, which made everyone envious...... They also said that they would grow old together and not be a failed couple! ”
"What do you want to say?" Wu Zhiyuan frowned.
"Two years later, I don't know why, the two gradually drifted apart, they didn't even quarrel once...... "Chen Xi said, "The male protagonist began to not return home at night, between them, there were fewer and fewer words, if he needed her, he used her as a tool to vent his desires, on the bed, on the sofa, and even in the kitchen, when he was done, he turned around and left......"
Wu Zhiyuan was silent.
Until one day, the heroine said that she wanted children, and she felt that having a child was a hope that might change the status quo...... The actor is angry and says Do you want to save your broken marriage with your children? Then, the male protagonist hit someone, pushed the female protagonist to the ground, and slammed the door...... The heroine can't bear it anymore and is missing! ”
"You may not have finished reading this book, let me tell you!"
Wu Zhiyuan sighed, "This man, only so often don't go home, because he can't stand the heroine's dictatorship, domineering, finger-pointing, although both of them are writers, but the heroine is already very famous, but the male protagonist has been obscure, unequal social status, resulting in the heroine's more and more domineering psychological ......"
He couldn't stand her for granted, let alone the so-called high society in her circle...... The heroine is missing, and she did it on purpose, and even used self-harm to create the impression that the male protagonist murdered her, her diary, and her bloodstains...... She wants to take revenge on him, ruin him, break him, and despair him......"
Unfortunately, she was calculating, but on the way to disappear the plan, she encountered gangsters, and her belongings were robbed, she didn't plan to go back, and it was inconvenient to contact relatives and friends, so she found a lover who had always admired her...... In the end, she became pregnant, murdered this lover, created the illusion that it was this lover who was in that time, detained her, she killed in self-defense, through the media, she gained the sympathy of the public, and finally returned home......"
The two used various means to torture each other and take revenge on each other...... The two did grow old together, they hated each other so much, but they had to be together forever......"
In fact, in this, it is impossible to say who is right and who is wrong, to put it bluntly, the three views do not agree, both parties are actually looking for a better way of life, but the angle and position of thinking are different, this essential contradiction is the most fatal in marriage...... In the end, it evolved into mutual torture and revenge! ”
After Wu Zhiyuan finished speaking, he took a long breath.
Turning his head, he glanced at Chen Xi, full of pity.
"Xiaoxi, I know what you're anxious about!" Wu Zhiyuan said, "But I'm not the hero, and you're not the heroine, you know?" We don't know what the future holds, the only thing we can do is to grasp the present! ”
"Live in the moment, huh?" Chen Xi was already full of tears.
Wu Zhiyuan stopped the car and lit a cigarette.
He, hugged her.
"Don't worry, I will protect us, I will work hard, try to keep us alive!" Buried in her temples, he whispered.
"I'm sorry, woooooooooooooooooo Chen Xi cried.
Didn't he tell her that one day, he would leave her?
Even, he will die!
She shouldn't have told that story, she shouldn't have worried about the so-called future.
He's right, he's not the hero, he's been good to her, he's always been like this, he's always guarded her, and he's never left.
Her worries are tantamount to distrust of him, distrust of his feelings, and moreover, at this juncture of escape.
"I can understand!" Wu Zhiyuan grinned, held Chen Xi's shoulder, and said softly, "You keep saying that my nerves have collapsed all day long, in fact, why aren't you?" It's because you care about me, that's why you're worried that I'll treat you badly in the future, between us, there's no need to say I'm sorry! ”
As he spoke, he threw away the cigarette and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"I'm fine!" Chen Xi said in a low voice, "Brother Yuan, you continue to drive!" ”
"Good!" Wu Zhiyuan nodded and restarted the throttle.
The van continued to drive forward.
The night is blurry, one road, one car, two people.
"Brother Yuan, you have rarely said anything about everything, can you tell me?" Chen Xi asked softly.
"He's a ruffian, a hooligan, a scoundrel...... Wu Zhiyuan shook his head and smiled, "But my brother! Speaking of which, he helped me a lot in order to find you! ”
"I want to listen!" Chen Xi looked at Zhiyuan, his eyes flashing, "I heard that he and Sister Mengran died together!" ”
"yes!" Wu Zhiyuan said leisurely, "This is his choice!" ”
"Huh?" Chen Xi frowned.
"Do you know who he is?" Wu Zhiyuan said, "He is a professional pickpocket, touching bags, and he is proud of it...... He especially looked down on those robbers, and was even more angry that others confused him with those thieves, and I still remember, once, I said that he was a thief, and he was so angry that he wanted to fight with me, you know, he was usually afraid of me......"
"It's such a touching bag, but silently supporting two twin orphans!" Chen Xi muttered.
"I asked him why he chose to help me!" Wu Zhiyuan said, "Guess what he said? He said he wanted to prove that he was alive! ”
"Proof he's still alive?" Chen Xi was puzzled.
"I just want to do one amazing thing, to find the feeling of being needed, to be trusted, and in this life, I want to do a lot of things, but none of them can be done, and time is slowly passing...... I hope that in the future, I can say to myself that I have done all these fucking things......" Wu Zhiyuan said, "These are his exact words!" ”
When Chen Xi heard this, his heart was shocked.
In fact, it's not just a jack of all trades, but also a lot of things.
They don't want to live their lives in a nest, they just want to do something meaningful, or rather, they think something meaningful, to prove themselves, and to be alive.
"Brother Yuan, I don't listen to other people's stories anymore, I want to listen to your stories, no matter how big or small, tell me!" After being silent for a long time, Chen Xi said.
"Good!" Wu Zhiyuan said leisurely, "I remember that year, I went to steal Longtan water ......"
The night breeze was gentle, just like Wu Zhiyuan's words, extremely gentle, in the night breeze, Chen Xi's mind gradually relaxed, and she slowly fell asleep.
"Sleep, when you wake up, it's already dawn!"
Wu Zhiyuan took off his coat and covered Chen Xi.
He tightened his grip on the steering wheel and picked up speed.
Two headlights cut through the darkness and headed northwest.
……
Zhuzhou, a bar, boiling.
But there is a place that is much quieter.
In a corner, a woman, a glass of red wine.
She was wearing a long red dress, and under the flashing lights, her face was cold and beautiful.
She sat quietly alone, her eyes sweeping across the hustle and bustle of the hall, her eyes full of indifference.
She seemed to come from another world, and she was out of place with everything here.
She didn't realize that she was low-key enough, sitting alone in a corner, unable to see her face from a distance, however, her words and deeds all revealed her unattainable.
It is precisely this kind of temperament that attracts men's attention in her direction from time to time.
The more this is the case, the more it arouses the desire of some men to conquer.
This is not? Not long after she sat down, a young man in a suit and leather shoes, with a graceful demeanor and a glass of red wine, came belatedly.
"Miss, can I invite you to have a drink?" The man chuckled and sat down beside her.
"I've got wine!" Her face remained unchanged, and she raised her glass and drank it down.
"Generally speaking, a woman who is as cold as ice on the surface has a fire hidden in her heart, as long as there is a fuse, it will burn at a point!" The man said confidently, and also raised the wine glass, and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.
"Do you think you're the one?" She asked, smirking off.
"You don't look like you're waiting for someone, to be precise, you're coming alone!" He took a step closer to her, "Every move you make tells me that you haven't been touched by a man for a long time!" ”
"You're saying that I came to a place like this and just wanted a man to sleep with?" She smiled, smiling.
"Isn't it?" He asked rhetorically, "If you just want to drink, why come to a place like this and sit alone?" ”
"Do you have a car?" She asked suddenly.
"Car?" He was stunned, "Yes! ”
"Then let's go!" She said, standing up.
"Isn't it better to be in bed?" He followed behind her, and his hand naturally rested on her shoulder, "The bed at my house is big and comfortable!" ”
"I haven't done it in the car, I want to try!" Her voice was low, falling in his ears, but she could hear it clearly.
"Good!" He got excited, hugged her, and quickly walked out of the bar.
After a while, the two came to an underground parking lot.
"The car, it's mine!" He couldn't wait, pointing to a black Toyota.
"Good car!" She smiled.
The car door quickly opened, and he pounced on her, very quickly, and unfastened his clothes.
"Huh?" Just as he was about to make the next move, he saw a cold and unparalleled face.
At some point, she had retracted her smile.
She looked at him, and there was a hint of mockery, a hint of disdain, and a hint of coldness in her eyes.
At this moment, she looked at him as if she were looking at a dead man.
The man shuddered.
"You ......" his words came to an abrupt end before he could finish speaking.
Only to hear a pop, a knife, has cut his throat.
"What, want to me? Are you worthy? She pushed him away and rolled over.
She watched, kept watching.
Watch as his blood flows, watch his pupils of fear slowly dilute until he dies.
At this time, a smile appeared on her face again.
"Wu Zhiyuan, where are you?" She muttered under her breath, "Didn't you want to kill me?" How did you run away? Anyway, if I can't find you, then I'll force you out! ”
With that, she took out the car keys from the man's body, threw them into the trunk like a dead dog, cleaned up the blood stains in the car, and then sat down in the cab.
"Everyone wants my Huan'er's life, all wait to tremble, the old lady is waiting for you in Wucheng!"
As soon as the accelerator moved, the black Toyota car flew away.
